Chuxia noticed a hint of confusion in her eyes. Could Shi Che be on the phone? She couldn’t help but step forward and gently push the door open.
Since her movent was very gentle, Shi Che didn’t notice it, and as he had his back to the door, he was unaware of Chuxia entering while he continued practicing his movents.
Chuxia stepped inside, intentionally treading lightly. Since his back was to her, she couldn’t see what Shi Che was doing or his expression, but his words slowly reached her ears, one by one.
"I, when I was on a business trip, saw a necklace that I thought would suit you well. I bought it for you."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he seed unsatisfied, muttering softly under his breath. Because his voice was quiet, Chuxia couldn’t make out what he said, but Shi Che quickly spoke again, "It’s not specifically bought, just bought casually. Here, it’s for you."
It was then that Chuxia realized Shi Che had bought a gift and wanted to give it to soone. Was he... practicing how to give it to soone?
Chuxia had never seen Shi Che so conflicted before. His usual style was to directly throw the gift in front of the person, maintaining a superior attitude as if saying, ’Take it if you want.’ This was his style, wasn’t it?
Why was he being so cautious?
So, who was this gift for? Could it be for Zheng Rourou? Sohow, thinking of Zheng Rourou gave her a slight sting in her heart, a bit of suffocation.
But then, the last ti she encountered Zheng Rourou, Shi Che’s attitude toward her was awful. Since then, Shi Che had often co ho, and there were no more rumors about him outside. It seed unlikely he and Zheng Rourou were involved, so the gift probably wasn’t for her.
If not for Zheng Rourou, then for who?
Her elder sister? That was even less likely. Who knew when her elder sister would return?
As Chuxia thought it over, a trace of realization suddenly brightened her eyes. Could it be... for her?
This thought made Chuxia’s heart tremble. Could the gift really be for her? It seed unlikely. They had been married for so long, and Shi Che had almost never given her anything. The only thing, a white clutch bag, was sothing he had bought on a whim during their honeymoon.
And now, him being on a business trip, how could he have taken the ti to buy her a gift specifically?
Impossible, right?
Chuxia kept denying it, but deep inside, a tiny hopeful thought uncontrollably surfaced.
Perhaps, the gift was really for her.
Shi Che had practiced several tis. Although he still felt uncomfortable, the words ca more smoothly now. He sighed in relief, ready to put down the box and change his clothes, when unexpectedly, turning around, he saw Chuxia who had sohow appeared behind him.
Shi Che was genuinely startled; he had never expected Chuxia to be there behind him. Could it be that she had heard everything he just said?
His dark eyes widened, the emotions swirling intensely, and his voice unconsciously deepened, "When did you co in?"
Chuxia was pondering whether the gift Shi Che was holding might be for her when he suddenly spoke. His voice was deep, and his tone rather unpleasant. Instinctively looking up, she t his dark, intense eyes.
